Built on a high-rye mashbill of 60% corn, 36% rye, and 4% malted barley, this small-batch release draws from hand-selected lots of roughly four barrels at a time, giving each bottling a singular character that larger-production bottled-in-bond expressions rarely achieve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuick Facts:\u003c\/strong\u003e ABV: 50% (100 Proof)  |  Origin: Indiana, USA  |  Age: 4 Years  |  Bottled in: Stanford, Kentucky  |  Mashbill: 60% Corn \/ 36% Rye \/ 4% Malted Barley\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eProduction \u0026amp; Heritage\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eResilient sources its Bottled in Bond barrels from an undisclosed Indiana distillery — widely understood, based on the distinctive 60\/36\/4 mashbill, to be the historic facility in Lawrenceburg, Indiana. Each barrel is aged a minimum of four years in newly charred 53-gallon American oak barrels, satisfying the strict requirements of the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897: single distillery, single distilling season, at least four years of federally bonded aging, and bottling at exactly 100 proof. After hand selection, barrels are transported to Stanford, Kentucky, where they are batched in lots of approximately four barrels and bottled with full transparency — including barrel numbers, distillation dates, and mashbill details printed on every label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e Buttery toffee leads immediately, followed by poached pear and vanilla syrup.

For drinkers seeking a high-rye, transparent bottled-in-bond bourbon with genuine batch variation, it represents solid value.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eWhy Resilient BiB?\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat separates Resilient Bottled in Bond from a crowded field of bonded bourbons is the combination of an aggressive 36% rye mashbill with genuinely small-batch bottling. Where many bonded releases blend dozens of barrels for consistency, Resilient works in lots of approximately four, meaning each batch carries distinct character. Full label transparency — barrel numbers, distillation dates, and mashbill — gives drinkers the information to track and compare batches, a practice more common in single-barrel programs than in bottled-in-bond releases. The result is a bourbon that satisfies the federal bonded standard for quality assurance while delivering the individuality of a hand-picked selection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Resilient","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44839364264105,"sku":"39420","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/1024\/6313\/files\/Resilient-Bottled-in-Bond-Bourbon__10906.jpg?v=1730520200"}],"url":"https:\/\/theliquorbarn.com\/collections\/resilient.oembed","provider":"The Liquor Barn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
